Destruction of Los Angeles: Difference between revisions

#There was a steady stream of people leaving the building during the service who could not handle the severity of the preaching.  These included the same people who had attended (and engaged in)  William Branham's sermons in LA since April the 24th.   

#During this sermon, William Branham prophecied that the city of Los Angeles would one day slide into the ocean, and a new coastline would form at the Salton Sea.

:''Thou city, who claims to be the city of the Angels, who's exalted yourself into heaven and sent all the dirty filthy things of fashions and things, till even the foreign countries come here to pick up our filth and send it away, with your fine churches and steeples, and so forth the way you do; remember, one day you'll be laying in the bottom of this sea. You're great honeycomb under you right now. The wrath of God is belching right beneath you. How much longer He'll hold this sandbar hanging over that, when that ocean out yonder a mile deep will slide in there plumb back to the Salton Sea. '''It'll be worse than the last day of Pompeii. Repent, Los Angeles.''' Repent the rest of you and turn to God. The hour of His wrath is upon the earth. Flee while there's time to flee and come into Christ." '' ([http://www.thefreeword.com/books/2265-L.pdf Sermon: The Choosing of a Bride, Los Angeles, California, April 29, 1965])
